Purification and characterization of a β-galactosidase fromSclerotinia sclerotiorum [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1992 Sclerotinia sclerotiorum secretes β-galactosidase, giving very low activity when cultivated in a medium with glucose as the carbon source. This production is greatly enhanced during growth on different pectin related polysaccharides. An extracellular β-galactosidase was purified 26-fold by ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration and ion exchange

The occurrence of β-galactosidase and β-phosphogalactosidase inLactobacillus caseistrains [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1984 Several strains of Lactobacillus casei of different origins were compared and it was observed that lactose metabolism varied from one strain to the other. Certain strains contained a β-galactosidase, others a β-phosphogalactosidase and others contain both.
